We don’t do coding tests at all. We do one 30-60m interview that covers some general tech questions and motivation.

So far we’ve hired 7 decent and 3 great people. No truly bad people have made it through that pipeline yet.

I can’t say anything about why, and I’d be prejudiced in any case.

Do the 7 people you've described as not great read HN?

What is motivation in this case?

[Aeolun]

Things like why you want to change positions, what motivates you, what tech do you like and why.
